The US president Barack Obama in telephone conversation with the prime minister of the United Kingdom Gordon Brown has expressed the disappointment in connection with unbinding Abdel Basset ali Mohmed al-Megrahi, serving the sentence for plane blasting over the city of Lokerbi. On it informs AFP referring to the press-service of The White House.
On a Downing street have confirmed, that the question on clearing of the Libyan from the Scottish prison rose during Brown's 40-minute conversation and Obama, however the further comments have refused. In August the American president already named the decision on clearing of the terrorist erroneous, however till now did not state the condemnation in conversation by the British prime minister.
Act of terrorism took place in 1988; as a result of explosion and falling of fragments of the plane 270 persons were lost. Al-Megrahi has been sentenced to life imprisonment in 2001, however in the end of August, 2009 of the terrorist have set free. This decision explained compassion to the 57-year-old man sick of the incurable form of a cancer.
Among victims in the sky over Lokerbi there were 189 Americans, therefore clearing of the terrorist has caused sharp reaction in the United States.
After clearing al-Megrahi in mass-media the version began to be discussed actively, according to which economic interests became the reason of actions of a British side. In particular, the son of Libyan leader Muammar Kaddafi has declared, that negotiations about clearing al-Megrahi were conducted by personally former prime minister Tony Blair lobbying interests of the British businessmen in sphere of the conclusion of oil contracts with Libya. Blair has denied the participation in the transaction.
The British Museum will open a major exhibition presenting a history of Indigenous Australia, supported by BP. This exhibition will be the first in the UK devoted to the history and culture of Indigenous Australians: both Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islanders. Drawing on objects from the British Museum’s collection, accompanied by important loans from British and Australian collections, the show will present Indigenous Australia as a living culture, with a continuous history dating back over 60,000 years.
The objects displayed in this exhibition are immensely important. The British Museum’s collection contains some of the earliest objects collected from Aboriginal people and Torres Strait Islanders through early naval voyages, colonists, and missionaries dating as far back as 1770. Many were collected at a time before museums were established in Australia and they represent tangible evidence of some of the earliest moments of contact between Aboriginal people, Torres Strait Islanders and the British. Many of these encounters occurred in or near places that are now major Australian cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth. As a result of collecting made in the early 1800s, many objects originate from coastal locations rather than the arid inland areas that are often associated with Indigenous Australia in the popular imagination.
The exhibition will not only present Indigenous ways of understanding the land and sea but also the significant challenges faced by Indigenous Australians from the colonial period until to the present day. In 1770 Captain Cook landed on the east coast of Australia, a continent larger than Europe. In this land there were hundreds of different Aboriginal groups, each inhabiting a particular area, and each having its own languages, laws and traditions. This land became a part of the British Empire and remained so until the various colonies joined together in 1901 to become the nation of Australia we know today. In this respect, the social history of 19th century Australia and the place of Indigenous people within this is very much a British story. This history continues into the twenty first century. With changing policies towards Indigenous Australians and their struggle for recognition of civil rights, this exhibition shows why issues about Indigenous Australians are still often so highly debated in Australia today.
The exhibition brings together loans of special works from institutions in the United Kingdom, including the British Library, the Pitt Rivers Museum and the Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. A number of works from the collection of the National Museum of Australia will be shown, including the masterpiece ‘Yumari’ by Uta Uta Tjangala. Tjangala was one of the artists who initiated the translation of traditions of sand sculptures and body painting onto canvas in 1971 at Papunya, a government settlement 240km northwest of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. Tjangala was also an inspirational leader who developed a plan for the Pintupi community to return to their homelands after decades of living at Papunya. A design from ‘Yumari’ forms a watermark on current Australian passports.
This exhibition has been developed in consultation with many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander individuals, Indigenous art and cultural centres across Australia, and has been organised with the National Museum of Australia. The broader project is a collaboration with the National Museum of Australia. It draws on a joint research project, funded by the Australian Research Council, undertaken by the British Museum, the National Museum of Australia and the Australian National University. Titled ‘Engaging Objects: Indigenous communities, museum collections and the representation of Indigenous histories’, the research project began in 2011 and involved staff from the National Museum of Australia and the British Museum visiting communities to discuss objects from the British Museum’s collections. The research undertaken revealed information about the circumstances of collecting and significance of the objects, many of which previously lacked good documentation. The project also brought contemporary Indigenous artists to London to view and respond to the Australian collections at the British Museum.
Neil MacGregor, Director of the British Museum said, “The history of Australia and its people is an incredible, continuous story that spans over 60,000 years. This story is also an important part of more recent British history and so it is of great significance that audiences in London will see these unique and powerful objects exploring this narrative. Temporary exhibitions of this nature are only possible thanks to external support so I am hugely grateful to BP for their longstanding and on-going commitment to the British Museum. I would also like to express my gratitude to our logistics partner IAG Cargo and the Australian High Commission who are supporting the exhibition’s public programme.”
In this latest ad for Volkswagen we follow a tall woman on a series of dates in her quest to find the perfect partner. The problem is that every man she meets is simply too small for her. After a number of failed dates with different men, we see her waiting for her next date. He arrives in a Volkswagen up! and our leading lady looks dejected: if he's driving that car, he's probably the shortest man of all, she thinks. Imagine her surprise and delight when the door opens and out steps a strapping 6'3 hunk of a man! She's finally found true love and a suitably tall companion in the most unlikely of places — the surprisingly spacious Volkswagen up!

I was really liking the new ad for Peta, "Do It Like They Do" until they made the stupid claim that vegans have a bigger sexual appetite. Anyway here is Peta's blurb on the benefits of going vegan...
From humping bunnies to bonking buffalo – animals are getting frisky in our brand-new ad, produced by top creative agency Fallon! The mischievous video drives home the message that vegans are much more likely to be, well, in the mood, thanks to the proven (sexual) health benefits of a plant-based diet.
The secret to vegans' enhanced sex drive is simple: their diet is free from the artery-clogging cholesterol found in meat, eggs and dairy products, leaving them with better blood flow and a body that functions better – including in the bedroom! Vegans are also, on average, fitter and slimmer than meat-eaters and less prone to cancer, heart disease, strokes, diabetes and obesity.
